if it didn't have to be a celebrity & i had a time machine, i'd spend the time with my dad, my aunt mary & uncle merle, my grandpa howard, & my great grandma irene.

if it had to be a celebrity, i'd pick aaron rodgers & donald driver.

It was July 3rd, 1974 when Linda told her father, Vernon, that she hated him and hoped he'd die. Kids sometimes say the worst things to their parents forgetting what tomorrow may or may not bring. Those very words she would learn to regret the next 34 years of her life. On July 4th, 1974 Vernon was doing laps at the local race track getting it ready for the ensuing race when suddenly his car veered to the infield striking a large tractor tire. Vernon suffered a heart attack an died almost instantly.

I as well would elect the time machine route to afford my mother the chance to tell her father she loves him one last time before he passes away six years before I was born.

I don't know if I could handle going back to spend one day with my dad, brother, or Happy, because at the end of the day I'd know that I had to say goodbye "that" way all over again.

Sometimes I want to die so that I can see them again. (The knowledge that one is going to with them for eternity is one of the coolest things about being a believer.)

But one day? It would be seriously cool for part of the day, and "I don't want this to end" for the other part, and then "oh shit" as all that opened scar tissue has to scar over for the second time.

Five minutes and I could say everything needed. Now, all I can do is look into the sky, speak and hope she's listening. The only drawback to that is I don't get to hear her laugh, or see her smile at my jokes anymore or tell me how much of a 'trip' I am to be around.

As for living celebrity, probably Will Smith. Those who know his story, will understand that.

That wasn't the case in my situation (well, not for my Dad and brother, anyway; it sorta was for Happy, though the vet saved the body until I could spend time mourning with it). I got to say goodbye.

I'm just saying that I wouldn't want to go through the "saying good bye" twice.

Mucky Tundra (22h) : @ByRyanWood How much did the injury affect him last fall? “A lot.”

Mucky Tundra (22h) : @ByRyanWood Kenny Clark said he had foot surgery in January. Injured his foot in opener against Eagles and played through it all year.

Zero2Cool (3-Jun) : Golden is wearing guardian cap again. I bet he plays with it on too.

Mucky Tundra (3-Jun) : All the stuff I'm reading from Lions fans are pointing at his toe; he more or less has permanent turf toe in one of his big toes

dfosterf (3-Jun) : Kenny played through it, and a shame he gets little credit for that, imo

dfosterf (3-Jun) : Big men. I hope it's not the undoing of Kenny Clark

dfosterf (3-Jun) : Probably his toe. Pretty much a great center. Toe injuries are brutal to bigen

Mucky Tundra (2-Jun) : Lions All-Pro C Frank Ragnow retires

wpr (30-May) : It's all good.

beast (30-May) : Yeah, and I enjoyed your comments and just attempted to add to it. Sorry if I did it incorrectly.

wpr (30-May) : Beast I never said Henderson was the salt of the earth. Nor even that he was correct. Just quoting the guy.

Zero2Cool (29-May) : What did you do??

Zero2Cool (29-May) : Whoa

beast (29-May) : OMG the website is now all white, even some white on white text

beast (29-May) : Henderson, who admits to taking cocaine during the Super Bowl against the Steelers, might dislike Bradshaw as he lost two Superbowls to him

wpr (28-May) : Hollywood Henderson said Bradshaw “is so dumb, he couldn't spell 'cat' if you spotted him the C and an A.”

Mucky Tundra (28-May) : Cooper stock=BUY BUY BUY

Mucky Tundra (28-May) : Also notes he’s playing with more confidence.

Mucky Tundra (28-May) : @AndyHermanNFL MLF says there was a time last year where Cooper was at 220 pounds. Now he’s at 240 and still flying around.

Mucky Tundra (28-May) : And don't even get me started on Frank Caliendos "impersonations"

Mucky Tundra (28-May) : I got tired of them being circle jerks with them overlaughing at each others jokes.

Zero2Cool (28-May) : It used to be must watch TV for me. now it's "meh" maybe to hear injury update

Mucky Tundra (28-May) : I haven't watched the pregame shows in years and I don't feel like I've missed a thing

Zero2Cool (28-May) : Love says knee affected him all season, groin injury didn't help matters.

Zero2Cool (28-May) : I used to enjoy him on FOX Pregame. Now it's like a frat party of former Patriots.

Zero2Cool (28-May) : LaFleur on Watson: “Christian is doing outstanding. I would say he’s ahead of schedule.”

Martha Careful (28-May) : Bradshaw is a dumb ass cracker. I am so tired of his "aw shucks" diatribe. He should shrivel up and go away.

buckeyepackfan (28-May) : He wad all butt hurt because Aaron duped the media saying he was immunized.

buckeyepackfan (28-May) : Bradshaw needs to retire. He's been ripping on Rodgers ever since the covid crap. He was all hury

Zero2Cool (28-May) : Terry Bradshaw doesn't want Rodgers in Pittsburgh lol wow

Zero2Cool (27-May) : one day contract, which he also feels is pointless, but if Packers came to him, he would
